If he has a solid showing at the combine do you see neal getting picked? If so what round and what team would you want him on? I think he could go in the 6th or so. wouldnt mind having him on my bengals.

Somebody is bound to fall in love with that top end speed, but I think he'd be better brush up on kick returns.

Not sure but I believe he will make someone's camp at least until the cuts start. In a way, he does have more of an NFL than college running style... somewhat like Foster.

Until he learns to run straight ahead and not dance around so much then No...But that doesn't mean someone won't pick him up.

I'd draft that in the 1st round and let her dance when ever she wanted too!

I would absolutely love it for Neal. He's worked so hard while he's been here. Deserving of every opportunity to play in the NFL.

the measureables (speed, size, strength) will most definitely get him drafted in the last two rounds, at least.

Tn does have a long history of backs making it to the league, drafted or not. Our last three starters are all there correct? Hardesty, foster and poole? I mean he had some really solid runs against tough opponents. that one against auburn was beautiful. im anxious to see whether his 40 is really as low as weve always heard. supposed to be a 4.4 guy right? Im gonna put him in the mid 4.5s personally.

Foster used to have that issue at UT. Glad he figured it out in the NFL. Hopefully Neal will as well.

Not sure if he gets drafted, but picked up after at the least. Physically he fits a solid mold for the NFL imo.

Problem he had is his dancing around and not hitting the hole hard. Imo he did it to save himself for the league. I also believe T Poole did it too. Neal may or may not have been influenced by that as a younger Vol. Of course that's just all imho...

Seriously? With Neal's performance this season minus the over rated oline? He's going to the next level. If the offensive line had been half of what they predicted, he would have hundreds more rushing. The fact that he got to where he is this year with what he has says so much about his talent. RN is next level. Period.

He's supposed to be crazy fast... Although it never has translated to the field. If he runs in the 4.4's on the electronic clock he will most certainly be drafted

He's got the measurables like size and speed that the NFL will want. And also, looking back at his time here, I believe that his intangibles will be looked at very favorably by NFL scouts. He's a good kid, never been in trouble, and he's had to put up with a ton of adversity while here. I think he'll be a solid complement back. 5th-6th round IMO

Ertel Burger!!! :clapping:

No way Neal is a mid 4.5 guy.... low 4.4s all day long

1100+ yard rushing season, good speed and size. definitely gets drafted, question is... what round
